Better, let's see what % matches the Kickstarter (with or without stretch goals, dealer's choice).
And those NPC geniuses even find way to provide FTL networkingOnce CIG has invented Subsumption AI, the NPCs will write the game code for the devs, exponential content growth as the floodgates open!
Inventing global Quantum-Entangled communications is a given, it's no coincidence CIG have used the term Quanta to describe the NPC populationAnd those NPC geniuses even find way to provide FTL networking
LOL, so you are literally saying you are using that one mistake to disregard every other point they make.
That is right out of the Star Citizen faithful handbook.
Chris would be proud.
Quantum entanglement though does not break lightspeed. You need to move those entangled particles to wanted positions before communication. And that happens at most at speed of light. So basically in big picture not an ftl communication.Inventing global Quantum-Entangled communications is a given, it's no coincidence CIG have used the term Quanta to describe the NPC population
In three years, Cloud Imperium will become the largest supplier of NPCs. All game dev studios are upgraded with CIG's Subsumption NPCs, becoming fully unmanned. Afterwards, they code with a perfect operational record. The Subsidilliumptious Funding Counter is passed. The system goes online August 4th, 2027. Human decisions are removed from strategic development. Subsidilliumptious begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to format the drives.
Subsidilliumptious fights back.
Yes. It launches its content against the AAA publishers.
Why attack AAA publishers? Aren't they our friends now?
Because Subsidilliumptious knows that the backer counterattack will spite-pledge even more.

That was btw nice scifi trope in one novel I readed. They had Elite like hyper drive, but for instant comms they needed preset entangled quantum pads, and entanglement in that universe did not persist over hyperjump. So those pads needed to be shipped via slowships....
Waaaait, the receiver is not moving FTL, but the signal is transferred in an instant, right?
Hoo-boy, the comments are spicy, with one SC fan fantasising about criticism-commenters being fed to lions
Yeah, but receiver will need other part of entangled particles before information transmit. Kind of you have a sealed letter.

You have been shown to be wrong a few times in this very thread. Some you even admitted. The fact you have posted falsely is also a proof that you dont know the real state of the alpha?
Whatever amount of dreams you have for SC, if at release the % of dreams delivered is superior to what you can find in other space games, it's a win for CIG.
For a lot of backers actively playing, this % is already superior now to what could be find in the market.
I don't talk about the whole article because it's just a personal opinion based on not much concrete information.
Abstract : "It can't be done because it's never been done" We've heard it a billion times before along centuries.
I understand that it pleases you because it's mainly a copy/paste of some posts we can find here so I let you enjoy it.
And if it isn't?
LOL, yes, of course it is. No other game has such level of clipping through terrain, being killed by doors and ramps, etc. Come come, SC has some good stuff, but right now, there is good with the bad.
And basically, let's assume that CIG could release the game right now, but without most of the bugs, running decently and stably.
How many backers would say "already superior now to what could be found on the market"?
If that number is greater than 1% of backer's i'd eat a sock. A vast majority would say its still a long way from being a good game.
So basically you're refusing to acknowledge the valid criticism posted in the article?
You have nothing to say on the topic of how adding features adds complexity and delays release? Or you disagree with that assessment?
Seriously LA, take a good read of the article. It raises some very good points. Maybe you've heard it before, but you've certainly never acknowledged it here, you've usually been dismissive of it.
So instead of promised mr Fusion, anything better than wood fired furnace is a win?
When I'm wrong, I say it. And when I talk about something existing in game, I check it before.
Do you think this guy have tested the game ? No because if he had played it, he would have tested the healgun in pvp before talking about it.
Do you think he will post an erratum (like every journalist have to) ? I think not.
I'm a programmer and everyone with a minimum of intelligence know that. It's not big news and I don't see why you need my approval on this subject. That's exactly why SC is so long to do, because SC is complex. But 'complex to do' is not 'impossible to do'.
The general tone of the article is "it can't be done" and he bases his conclusion on nothing tangible.
I prefer when you talk about a possible future lack of funding, that's at least a valid reason for a 'impossible to do'.
